We are given:

The weight of gold in a 22 karat gold object = 0.917 times objects weight.

The weight of gold in a 18 karat gold object = 0.583 times objects weight.

We need to find the weight of gold in 73.5 ounces of statue for 22 karat and for 18 karat.

For 73.5 ounces of statue 22 karat gold = 0.917 × 73.5 = 67.3995 ounces gold.

For 73.5 ounces of statue 18 karat gold = 0.583 ×73.5 = 42.8505 ounces gold.

67.3995 -  42.8505 = 24.549 ounces of gold.

<h3>Therefore, 22 karat gold statue contains more gold and it contain 24.549 ounces more gold.</h3>

Can a right triangle have a leg that is 10 meters long and a hypotenuse that is 10 meters long
pishuonlain [190]
Lets see
a and b are legs
c=hypotnuse
a^2+b^2=c^2
10^2+b^2=10^2
100+b^2=100
minus 100 both sides
b^2=0
b=0
false, if you have a leg legnth 0, then they lines are right on top of each other

 Subtract 33 from 30:

4 – 15 ÷ (– 3)

 Divide -15 by -3:

4 + 5

How do you find a vector that is orthogonal to 5i + 12j ?
Rashid [163]
\bf \textit{perpendicular, negative-reciprocal slope for slope}\quad \cfrac{a}{b}\\\\&#10;slope=\cfrac{a}{{{ b}}}\qquad negative\implies  -\cfrac{a}{{{ b}}}\qquad reciprocal\implies - \cfrac{{{ b}}}{a}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \boxed{5i+12j}\implies &#10;\begin{array}{rllll}&#10;\ \textless \ 5&,&12\ \textgreater \ \\&#10;x&&y&#10;\end{array}\quad slope=\cfrac{y}{x}\implies \cfrac{12}{5}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;slope=\cfrac{12}{{{ 5}}}\qquad negative\implies  -\cfrac{12}{{{ 5}}}\qquad reciprocal\implies - \cfrac{{{ 5}}}{12}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\ \textless \ 12, -5\ \textgreater \ \ or\ \ \textless \ -12,5\ \textgreater \ \implies \boxed{12i-5j\ or\ -12i+5j}

if we were to place <5, 12> in standard position, so it'd be originating from 0,0, then the rise is 12 and the run is 5.

so any other vector that has a negative reciprocal slope to it, will then be perpendicular or "orthogonal" to it.

so... for example a parallel to <-12, 5> is say hmmm < -144, 60>, if you simplify that fraction, you'd end up with <-12, 5>, since all we did was multiply both coordinates by 12.

or using a unit vector for those above, then

\bf \textit{unit vector}\qquad \cfrac{\ \textless \ a,b\ \textgreater \ }{||\ \textless \ a,b\ \textgreater \ ||}\implies \cfrac{\ \textless \ a,b\ \textgreater \ }{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}\implies \cfrac{a}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}},\cfrac{b}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{12,-5}{\sqrt{12^2+5^2}}\implies \cfrac{12,-5}{13}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{12}{13}\ ,\ \cfrac{-5}{13}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{-12,5}{\sqrt{12^2+5^2}}\implies \cfrac{-12,5}{13}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{-12}{13}\ ,\ \cfrac{5}{13}}

Solve x2 − 7x + 12 = 0.<br> x = −3, x = −4<br> x = 3, x = 4<br> x = 2, x = 6<br> x = −2, x = −6
UNO [17]

Answer:

x=4, x=3

B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: x^2-7x+12=0

Using middle term splitting factor the left side equation.

x^2-4x-3x+12=0

(x-4)(x-3)=0

Equate each factor to 0 and solve for x

x-4=0    or     x-3=0

x=4 and x=3

Hence, The solution of the equation is 4 or 3
